China can rollover on Trudeau and Biden anytime they want, both are in Xi's back pocket.

The only thing that keeps this country going is the natural resource sector, without that we are Guatemala North.

Canada under Trudeau is the stupidest country in the world.

Canadian soldiers no longer training Chinese troops, defence minister says

Canada: Leftist government staffers investigated Jihad Watch writer who was later fired for criticizing Islam

FEB 25, 2021 1:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER

The alacrity and energy with which leftists all over the West rush to implement Sharia blasphemy provisions is astonishing. Mimi M. Whissell and the other Canadian government officials mentioned in this article have been thoroughly indoctrinated with the propaganda Big Lie that opposition to jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others is “Islamophobia” and “racism.” Note that “in August 2017, the Canadian Press reported that Douglass-Williams’ views were under investigation, alleging a ‘hindrance to her work with the foundation and an affront to its legally defined mandate, which is to help eliminate racism and racial discrimination in Canada.'”

What race is jihad terrorism again? What race is the forced hijab, child marriage, forced marriage, throwing homosexuals off buildings, etc.? What race are Muslims in the aggregate? If the Canadian government had a modicum of realism about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat, and the smallest amount of decency left, it would understand that tracking the activities of jihadis and exposing their motivating ideology is an act of love, not of hate, an act of love for humane values, for civilization, for human rights, for just societies. If the Canadian government had even a scintilla of sanity, it would apologize to Christine Douglass-Williams and reinstate her to the Race Relations Foundation, or give her a position of greater influence.

Instead, we have this spectacle, of taxpayer-funded employees of the Canadian government scouring the writings of a Canadian citizen and fellow government employee for the crime of noting that jihadis use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence. Were Mimi M. Whissell and her colleagues padding their resumes in hopes of getting plum positions in the government of Pakistan?

Here is Christine Douglass-Williams’ full account of what happened: Fired by the Canadian Government for Criticizing Islam: Multicultural Canada: A Weak Link In the Battle Against Islamization.



“DOCS: Liberal staffers investigated Jihad Watch writer before firing from arms-length Race Relations Foundation,” Rebel News, February 24, 2021:

Internal emails show that the Department of Canadian Heritage started gathering “emergency” information on the public speeches and writings of a critic of political Islam in the months before she was removed from her position at the Canadian Race Relations Foundation (CRRF), an arms-length government agency that aims to combat racism.

Christine Douglass-Williams is a long-time contributor to the Jihad Watch blog, and was a board member at the CRRF from 2012 to 2017, when she was fired after being investigated for her views.

Email: Minister’s Office Emergency

On February 2, 2017, Mimi M. Whissell, a director with the Department of Canadian Heritage, sent an email with regards to Douglass-Williams. The following email was sent to staffers Marie-Eve Thérien, Isabelle Moses and Christine Harrington:

SUBJECT: Urgence du bureau de la ministre

Est-ce que vous pouvez m’appeler svp? Merci

Re : Christine Douglass-Williams

In translation:

SUBJECT: Minister’s office emergency

Can you call me please? Thank you

Whissell’s Follow Up Email: Search For Public Writings, Speeches
Half an hour later, Whissell sent a follow up email, including staffer Geneviève Guerrier in the chain:

Please also include in your search public writings and speeches. Thanks.

Douglass-Williams Investigated, Fired
In August 2017, the Canadian Press reported that Douglass-Williams’ views were under investigation, alleging a “hindrance to her work with the foundation and an affront to its legally defined mandate, which is to help eliminate racism and racial discrimination in Canada.”

In December 2017, Douglass-Williams was fired from her position as a board member at the CRRF….
